Revision as of 08:43, 19 July 2010

• 1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

• 1 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

• 1 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.

• 1 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.

• 1 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

• 1 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

• 1 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

• 1 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

• 1 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

• 10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

• 1 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:

• 1 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.

• 1 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

• 14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

• 1 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

• 1 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.

• 1 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.

• 1 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.

• 1 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.

• 1 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

• 21 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

• 1 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.

• 1 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;

• 1 These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.

• 1 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.

• 1 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.

• 1 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit's end.

• 1 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.

• 1 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.

• 1 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

• 31 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

• 1 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.

• 1 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;

• 1 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

• 1 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.

• 1 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;

• 1 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.

• 1 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

• 1 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.

• 1 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.

• 1 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.

• 1 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

• 1 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
